Poppyseed Bread/Muffins

This recipe is awesome! The recipe comes from my Mom who got it from some small town Nebraska cookbook. I've made this several times and it always comes out beautifully. Whenever I bring this to a potluck, party- etc., the same thing always happens. People are always a little timid to try it. But once someone does- the word is out and soon it has vanished and several people are asking for the recipe!
